When Olivia notices a change in her stepson’s behavior, she grows increasingly worried. She asks her husband, Patrick, to talk to him, but he gets nothing out of the boy. By chance, Olivia overhears a conversation between Josh and his biological mother, and soon everything is revealed, leaving Olivia shocked and heartsore for the little boy.Like clockwork, every Sunday at 5 p.m., my stepson Josh came back from his mom’s place. And every single Sunday, he would step through our front door, kick off his shoes, and head straight to his room without a word.It was like someone flipped a switch on Josh’s personality with us, transforming him from our cheerful, chatty ten-year-old son into a brooding stranger. And what was worse? He never talked about what happened at his mom’s place. I always wanted to ask him about his mood, but I also didn’t want to push it.
